So desperate were athletes and officials to flaunt the country's ability, both as competitors and hosts, an attempt was made to hold a global championship in 1989.

CAPE TOWN - “This one was for all of us!” was Gerda Steyn’s reaction after setting a new South African women’s marathon record in Siena, Italy on Sunday.
The 31-year-old ultra-distance star slashed more than a minute off the 25-year-old mark of two hours, 26 minutes and 35 seconds (2:26.35) – set by Colleen de Reuck in Berlin in 1996 – by stopping the clock on 2:25.28 at the Xiamen Marathon and Tuscany Elite Camp Global Elite Race.
She finished in ninth position, with Kenya’s Angela Tanui taking the honours in an outstanding 2:20.08 – the fastest time in 2021, and the 40th quickest in history.

Comrades legend Nick Bester is still on the mend after he was attacked while out on a training run in the Magalies mountains in August that left him in ICU with multiple injuries.
In an Instagram post, Bester's son Shaun-Nick said his father was beaten with rocks by attackers, stripped, tied up and left on a mountain.
“He managed to escape down the mountain by sliding on his back until he was right against someone’s fence,” Shaun-Nick added.
He was taken to hospital where he was placed in ICU, before recovering in high care and then at home.
